The project is expected to start on 16 September 2024 and conclude by 28 February 2025, with services to be delivered in the South East region of the United Kingdom. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly SMEs and VCSEs, within the consulting and community development sectors to contribute to a meaningful initiative that influences the wellbeing of various communities. Companies with expertise in developing strategic frameworks, engaging with diverse stakeholders, and implementing Asset Based Community Development (ABCD) approaches will find this contract particularly suitable.

This new strategy will consider the role of the council in nurturing our communities and creating an environment in which they can develop and thrive. It will reflect the ways in which predicted population growth and societal trends will impact on the district's communities and reset our expectations of what strong, vibrant and resilient communities should look like during the period through to 2030. In particular, it will need to respond to the impacts of: *New emerging communities, in particular at major housing development areas (MDA) in the district. *The cost-of-living crisis has challenged many people and households, including some who are unused to needing support and assistance. *The war in Ukraine, and unrest in other parts of the world, have contributed to an influx of people from different cultural backgrounds, increasing the diversity and mix of our communities. *The effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on people's physical and mental health and the way that they interact. The strategy will need to: *Address all communities across Winchester district and reflect their diverse nature. *Identify the key stakeholders and partner agencies and engage with them. *Utilise an Asset Based Community Development (ABCD) approach. *Consider national and regional strategies and guidance. *Set out strategic objectives and aims for action or intervention. *Propose SMART indicators. We are looking for work to start in mid-September and expect the contract to run for 5-6 months.
